In Generals, the and the are the world's two superpowers, and are the targets of the (GLA), an omnipresent borderless organization, fighting as a. The United States and China are depicted as allies in the series who occasionally co-operate against the GLA, whose goal is to eliminate the military forces of China and the United States.China The Chinese campaign starts with GLA forces launching attacks on Chinese cities, starting with the detonation of a stolen Chinese nuclear warhead in during a military parade, which kills thousands. In a separate attack, the GLA destroys a bridge leading into to decimate a Chinese armored division. Undeterred, the Chinese manage to hold off the offensive, despite having to destroy the in the process in order to stall the GLA's advance and regain the initiative.
Now on the counter-offensive, the provides air support to the Chinese as they launch a counterattack into GLA-occupied, almost completely destroying the city. The Chinese then learn that the terror cell responsible for the attacks across China has been located in, and a massive Chinese attack is ordered, using to finally put an end to the GLA incursion.GLA Despite losses against the Chinese, the GLA's influence in the as well as its strong presence in is relatively unaffected.

Various unit types can be constructed, ranging from infantry to vehicles and air units. The player may control the United States of America, the People's Republic of China, or the Global Liberation Army, and each side has its unique characteristics and abilities. All sides share some similarities, such as training infantry at a barracks, building armored vehicles at a factory, possessing 'high tech' buildings needed for more advanced units, possessing a means to acquire additional resources and possessing a unique.The United States relies on an arsenal of high-tech weaponry and a dominant air force; however, it is the most expensive army in the game to maintain. China relies on the power of propaganda and hordes of troops and tanks to overwhelm their opponents, the drawback here being that its troops must be able to form the larger army in the match.
The GLA is considerably weaker in a head-on engagement, and must rely on underhanded, sneaky, tactics to defeat its opponents.The game's interface is similar to that of real-time strategy games such as. The player selects buildings to bring up build orders and purchase upgrades, and can select individual units to activate their special abilities. Structures are built by selecting dedicated builder units (U.S.A and China: Construction Dozer. GLA: Worker.) and placing the structure anywhere on the map.As with other real-time strategy games, the various units have advantages and disadvantages against other units, and the player is encouraged to mix unit types in order to succeed and fight tactically with various unit abilities in order to win.
